Living The Ridiculous Side of LIfe

by Gloria Bold

“It was, I don’t know.. just”
“JUST WHAT YOU NEEDED ?” Jess belted out.
“What?, No. Stop singing.”
“Fine, I was just trying to bring a little art into life.”
“Excuse me? Art? Some 80’s crap song is art? Plus you interrupted me in the middle of something.”
“Actually, it’s The Cars, and they don’t mind me coming here, wasting all their time”
“Jess, what the hell are you talking about?”
“Shit, James, what hell is your problem? I told you about this weeks ago. You know. My New Year’s Resolution to Apply Song Lyric’s To All Aspects of My Life!”
“First of all, you were drunk. Second, it is damn near March. You’re a little late.”
“I was completely sober. You can’t tell me that you’ve stopped believing in the ridiculous side of life”
“It gets a little old, Jess… being the freak all the time”
“Don’t Stop, BELIEVING ”
“Oh, God. You’re going to do this all night, aren’t you?”
